streamadm(4)
NAME
  streamadm - Defines configuration information about a STREAMS module or
  driver

SYNOPSIS
  #include <sys/stream.h>

  struct streamadm(
	  uint sa_version,
	  uint sa_flags,
	  char sa_name [FMNAMESZ+1],
	  caddr_t sa_ttys,
	  uint sa_sync_level,
	  caddr_t sa_sync_info );

PARAMETERS
  sa_version
      Version identifier for the streamadm structure.  Used for compatibility
      reasons.

  sa_flags
      A flag indicating the type of STREAMS.  Possible values are:

      STR_IS_DEVICE
	      For a STREAMS driver.

      STR_IS_MODULE
	      For a STREAMS module.

  sa_name
      The unique name of the module or driver.	Modules and drivers share a
      common name space.  The maximum length for a name is set by FMNAMESZ.

  sa_ttys
      A pointer to the ttys() routine that will be used by the module or
      driver.  When the module or driver is added via strmod_add(), this
      pointer will be placed in the d_ttys field in the cdevsw structure.  If
      the driver is not a tty driver, this field is set to NULL.

  sa_sync_level
      The synchronization level for the module or driver.  This field is
      relevant on multiprocessors.  The possible values are:

      SQLVL_DEFAULT
	      The default, global level synchronization.

      SQLVL_GLOBAL
	      Global level synchronization.

      SQLVL_ELSEWHERE
	      Arbitrary level synchronization.

      SQLVL_MODULE
	      Module level synchronization.

      SQLVL_QUEUEPAIR
	      Queue pair level synchronization.

      SQLVL_QUEUE
	      Queue level synchronization.

  sa_sync_info
      A pointer to synchronization data.  This field is relevant if
      sa_sync_level is SQLVL_ELSEWHERE.

DESCRIPTION
  The streamadm structure defines additional configuration information for a
  STREAMS module or driver.  The operating system configuration procedure
  uses this structure in addition to the traditional streamtab structure when
  configuring a STREAMS module or driver.

  The Network Programmer's Guide contains additional information about the
  synchronization levels for the module or driver.
